1 Chronicles 20:2-4
1599 Geneva Bible
2 (A)Then David took the crown of their king from off his head, and found it the weight of a [a]talent of gold with precious stones in it: and it was set on David’s head, and he brought away the spoil of the city exceeding much.
3 And he carried away the people that were in it, and cut them with saws, and with harrows of iron, and with axes: even thus did David with all the cities of the children of Ammon. Then David and all the people came again to Jerusalem.
4 ¶ (B)And after this also there arose war at [b]Gezer with the Philistines: then Sibbechai the Hushathite slew [c]Sippai of the children of [d]Haraphah, and they were subdued.
